 Hi David,
I live in our bigest state.
FOXES

1. Try laying chook wire along the ground on the out side the wire and tie
it to the fence . To help stop diging.
2. I also put chick wire on the out side of the wire ( on the fence) it has
smaller holes and alot stronger . It stops the foxes chewing the wire and
getting in.
3. Also put a roof on the pen just a wire or shade cloth so the crows do not
pinch your eggs.
4. At a last resort you can pee around the pen this marks the pen as yours
and most cats, dogs ,ect should not cross your sent marks.
Or you can try and trap them .
Good luck
Peggy.
